Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Darkstar File Manager

Go to Users in your WordPress admin panel. Hover over the user you want to upload files for, and click "View Documents". You'll see an upload form where you can select and upload files for that client.

Files are stored in the path you configure in Settings → Darkstar File Manager. For maximum security, we recommend storing files outside your web root (e.g., /var/www/client-docs instead of /var/www/html/wp-content/client-docs).

No. Each client can only see and download files in their own folder. The plugin enforces strict user isolation.

By default: PDF, DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, CSV, TXT, JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, WEBP, and ZIP files. You can customize this list in Settings → Darkstar File Manager.

Go to Settings → Darkstar File Manager and adjust the "Maximum File Size (MB)" setting. You can set it between 1 and 100 MB.

Yes! The plugin is fully internationalization-ready and includes Polylang integration for multilingual sites. Translation files are located in the /languages directory.

No. Files uploaded by administrators appear in a separate "Documents for you" section (read-only). Clients can only delete files they uploaded themselves.

Clients simply log in to your WordPress site and visit the page where you added the [dsfm_client_login] shortcode. After logging in, they'll see all their documents and can upload new ones.

Yes! The plugin automatically detects and uses the custom login URL configured by security plugins like iThemes Security, Wordfence, or any other plugin that changes the WordPress login page. The login form on the shortcode page will work seamlessly with these security plugins.

Yes. The plugin implements multiple security layers: - Files are served through an authenticated handler (not direct URLs) - User authentication required - Path traversal protection - File type, MIME, and WordPress built-in type validation - Nonce verification on all actions - Files can be stored outside web root
